The electricity is generated by the burning of fuel in the power plant that increases the kinetic energy of water vapor which rotates the turbine and shaft of the generator.

<h3>What is a power plant?</h3>

A power plant is a place where heavy machinery objects are installed to produce electricity.

The power is generated in the power plant with the help of the burning of fuel that increases the temperature of the boiler. There are so many tubes in which water is present. Water absorbs heat and increases its kinetic energy. And this kinetic energy help to rotate the turbine and the shaft of the generator is attached to the turbine as result electricity is generated.

More about the power plant link is given below.

The 150-lb man sits in the center of the boat, which has a uniform width and a weight per linear foot of 3 lb&gt;ft. Determine t
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

M = 281.25 lb*ft

Explanation:

Given

W<em>man</em> = 150 lb

Weight per linear foot of the boat: q = 3 lb/ft

L = 15.00 m

M<em>max</em> = ?

Initially, we have to calculate the Buoyant Force per linear foot (due to the water exerts a uniform distributed load upward on the bottom of the boat):

∑ Fy = 0  (+↑)     ⇒    q'*L - W - q*L = 0

⇒       q' = (W + q*L) / L

⇒       q' = (150 lb + 3 lb/ft*15 ft) / 15 ft

⇒       q' = 13 lb/ft   (+↑)

The free body diagram of the boat is shown in the pic.

Then, we apply the following equation

q(x) = (13 - 3) = 10   (+↑)

V(x) = ∫q(x) dx = ∫10 dx = 10x   (0 ≤ x ≤ 7.5)

M(x) = ∫10x dx = 5x²  (0 ≤ x ≤ 7.5)

The maximum internal bending moment occurs when x = 7.5 ft

then

M(7.5) = 5(7.5)² = 281.25 lb*ft

Stream Piracy – Kaaterskill, NY. Check and double-click the Problem 15 folder. The dark blue and orange streams highlight the pr
baherus [9]

Answer:

b. The pirating streams are eroding headwardly to intersect more of the other streams’ drainage basins, causing water to be diverted down their steeper gradients.

Explanation:

From the Kaaterskill NY 15 minute map (1906), this shows two classic examples of stream capture.

The Kaaterskill Creek flow down the east relatively steep slopes into the Hudson River Valley. While, the Gooseberry Creek is a low gradient stream flowing down the west direction which in turn drains the higher parts of the Catskills in this area.

However, there is Headward erosion of Kaaterskill Creek which resulted to the capture of part of the headwaters of Gooseberry Creek.

The evidence for this is the presence of "barbed" (enters at obtuse rather than acute angle) tributary which enters Kaaterskill Creek from South Lake which was once a part of the Gooseberry Creek drainage system.

It should be noted again, that there is drainage divide between the Gooseberry and Kaaterskill drainage systems (just to the left of the word Twilight) which is located in the center of the valley.

As it progresses, this divide will then move westward as Kaaterskill captures more and more of the Gooseberry system.

Suppose that the material to be used in a fuse melts when the current density rises to 459 A/cm2. What diameter of cylindrical w
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

The required diameter of the fuse wire should be 0.0383 cm  to limit the current to 0.53 A with current density of 459 A/cm² .

Explanation:

We are given current density of 459 A/cm²  and we want to limit the current to 0.53 A in a fuse wire. We are asked to find the corresponding diameter of the fuse wire.

Recall that current density is given by

j = I/A

where I is the current flowing through the wire and A is the area of the wire

A = πr²

but r = d/2  so

A = π(d/2)²

A = πd²/4

so the equation of current density becomes

j = I/πd²/4

j = 4I/πd²

Re-arrange the equation for d

d² = 4I/jπ  

d = √4I/jπ

d = √(4*0.53)/(459π)

d = 0.0383 cm

Therefore, the required diameter of the fuse wire should be 0.0383 cm  to limit the current to 0.53 A with current density of 459 A/cm² .
